The Asia-Pacific (APAC) water sector is entering a decisive transition phase, where resilience, efficiency, and regulatory compliance are becoming as critical as capacity expansion. As climate volatility, industrial complexity, and urban density intensify across the region, water and wastewater systems are being reshaped by circularity principles, ...

Most parts of Europe face recurring droughts as below-average rainfall combined with heatwaves exacerbate water stress. The latest revision of European Union wastewater directives has driven nations to invest in tertiary treatment of wastewater and proactively encouraged water reuse to meet agricultural and industrial water demand. This includes me...

Europe has been faced with unprecedented heatwaves and droughts triggered by climate change. This has affected surface and groundwater availability across regions, leading to water use restrictions and investment in water reuse infrastructure.Southern European countries such as Spain, Cyprus, Malta, and Greece have invested in desalination as an al...

Next-generation fermentation pathways for sustainable fuel production represent an evolving suite of biological and bio-electrochemical processes designed to convert diverse carbon sources, such as CO₂, biomass, waste gases, and organic residues, into liquid fuels. These approaches integrate advances in metabolic engineering, synthetic biology, and...

The rapid increase in carbon emissions worldwide and the urgency to achieve net-zero targets have intensified the need for carbon capture and utilization (CCU) technologies. While technologies have advanced significantly, the long-term economic viability of carbon management remains constrained without scalable pathways to convert captured CO₂ into...

Direct air capture (DAC) is gaining prominence as a critical negative-emissions solution for achieving global net-zero targets. With atmospheric CO₂ levels reaching approximately 420 ppm in 2025 and projections indicating a need for 1–10 gigatons of annual CO₂ removal by 2050, DAC offers a scalable pathway to mitigate climate change. Unlike convent...
